Mathis Airport was a private airport located in unincorporated Forsyth County, Georgia, about northwest of Suwanee in the northeastern part of metro Atlanta. The airport closed in October 2014. It had a 1800-foot or 550-meter runway, or 357 meters above mean sea level (AMSL). Mathis Airport sat among residential subdivisions in southern Forsyth County. From 2004 to 2009, Mathis was home to Experimental Aircraft Association Chapter 1415, but in 2009 this chapter moved to Air Acres airport in Woodstock, GA. == History == LG Mathis founded Mathis Airport in 1959 as a privately owned / public use airport. In 1979 LG Mathis and Patrick McLaughlin began Mathis Airpark as a fly-in residential community adjacent to the airport. In 1985 LG Mathis sold half of the airport to his brother, CJ. In 1990 CJ Mathis bought the remaining half of the airport. In 1992 CJ sold the airport to Seven Oaks, LLC. In 1995 Seven Oaks, LLC sold the airport back to CJ Mathis. In June 2004 CJ sold the airport (10.53 acres) and an adjacent subdivision lot (3.54 acres) in the airpark to Flyboy Aviation Properties LLC (Flyboy Aviation). In 2004, Flyboy Aviation expanded the airport in many ways (tore down the original wooden hangars and cinder-block FBO, added 17 new metal T-hangars, built a new club house, widened and lengthened the asphalt runway, asphalted taxiways and hangar aprons). In October 2014 the airport was closed, all hangars removed and the land will be converted to build houses on the property. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Mathis Airport」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
